Ask the yellow crane to alarm the white gull, even the parrot can speak, and hate Fangzhou. At the end of the year, the river is empty, the clouds are flying and the wind is rising, and the autumn is full of prosperity. There is a Yue girl Wu Ji Chu wine, Mo vain Lao Tzu South Building. Life is empty, thousands of years, a smile and rest.

In the 14th week of the BWF World Rankings, Men's Singles Shi Yuqi ranked 2nd and Li Shifeng ranked 7th, both of whom have been fully qualified for Men's Singles; Women's Singles Chen Yufei ranked 2nd, He Bingjiao ranked 6th, Han Yue ranked 7th, and Wang Zhiyi ranked 9th, and the Women's Singles has also been confirmed to have the full qualification, only the question of who will become the second person is He Bingjiao and Han Yue; Women's Doubles Chen Qingchen/Jia Yifan 1st, Liu Shengshu/Tan Ning 4th, Zhang Shuxian/Zheng Yu 7th, full qualification confirmed; Mixed Doubles Zheng Siwei/Huang Yaqiong 1st, Feng Yanzhe/Huang Dongping 3rd, Jiang Zhenbang/ Wei Yaxin is 5th and has no problem with the full quota, while Men's Doubles Leung Wai Keng/Wang Chang are 3rd, Liu Yuchen/Ou Xuanyi is 8th, and He Jiting/Ren Xiangyu is 11th, which is the only event where it is uncertain whether they will qualify for the full quota.
Liu Yuchen/Ou Xuanyi are currently ranked eighth, but Indonesia's Fikri/Maulana are only 719 points behind them, while Chinese Taipei's Li Yang/Wang Chi Lin, ranked 10th, are only 1,650 points behind. One Asian Championship bonus point can change all that.

All five events are fully booked, Men's Singles Shi Yuqi, Li Shifeng, Weng Hongyang, Lu Guangzu, Women's Doubles, He Bingjiao, Han Yue, Wang Zhiyi, Men's Doubles Liang Weihang/Wang Chang, Liu Yuchen/Ou Xuanyi, He Jiting/Ren Xiangyu, Chen Baiyang/Liu Yi, Women's Doubles Chen Qingchen/Jia Yifan, Liu Shengshu/Tan Ning, Zhang Shuxian/Zheng Yu, Li Wenmei/Liu Xuanxuan, Page Zheng Siwei/Huang Yaqiong, Feng Yanzhe/Huang Dongping, Jiang Zhenbang/Wei Yaxin, Cheng Xing/Chen Fanghui.
At present, the signing has been announced, Liu Yuchen/Ou Xuanyi and Fikri/Maulana are all divided in the bottom half, from the analysis of the opponents encountered by the two groups of players in the previous rounds, it can be said that the strength is not very strong, they are very likely to meet in the semi-finals. Liu Yuchen/Ou Xuanyi's opponent in the first round is the world's No. 42 Indian teenager Arjun/Kapila, Liu Yuchen/Ou Xuanyi has no problem successfully advancing to the round of 16; in the second round, the winner between Indonesia's Fernando/Martin and South Korea's Kim Young-yi/Wang Can is likely to be Fernando/Martin, who was once ranked No. 9 in the world, as long as they play normally, it is not a big problem to advance to the top 8; the semi-finals are against Malaysia's world champion and No. 4 seed Xie Dingfeng/ Su Weiyi, this is a key battle, hoping to play extraordinarily, if he wins, the qualification for the Paris Olympics will be secure.
Fikri/Maulana face Thailand's Supak/Gitinupong in the first round, there is no suspense to win, the 1/8 finals may face Chinese Taipei's Li Yang/Wang Qilin, the two sides are unpredictable, and the 1/4 finals will meet the No. 2 seeds of South Korea Seo Seung-taek/Kang Min-hyuk, and the hope of winning is slim.
Notably, Chinese Taipei's Li Yang/Wang Chi-lin, who are the reigning Olympic champions and have already qualified for the Paris Olympics, are narrowly ranked 10th, but a move up to the top eight in the world rankings would knock Liu Yuchen/Ou Xuanyi out of the circle.
He Bingjiao and Han Yue's battle for the second Olympic women's singles will also end at this Asian Championships, and whoever can go further will qualify for the Olympics. He Bingjiao is currently 1158 points ahead of Han Yue, and if He Bingjiao stops in the quarterfinals, Han Yue needs to reach the semifinals to surpass He Bingjiao. Judging from the drawing table, He Bingjiao has a high probability of advancing to the quarterfinals, but the opponent in the semifinals is the world's No. 1 An Xiying, He Bingjiao has lost 7 consecutive games against An Xiying, and it is unlikely that she will win. Han Yue's opponent who advanced to the semifinals is Akane Yamaguchi, who has a 0-5 record, and hopes that Han Yue will get his first victory. If the two are both in the quarterfinals, He Bingjiao will qualify.
The bleak dragon and snake day struggled, and they wanted to kill their lives. The mountains and rivers on the plateau have changed, and the battlefield has come and gone. Jingwei has injustices to fill the Hanhai, and Bao Xu cries Qin Ting without tears. And the state heroes know who is there, and they don't plan to divide the army into the well.
